    Because Ubaldo Jimenz is on the bump for the Rockies. Both pitchers have been solid their past 3 games. Oswalt does own a career 7-1 record w/a 1.78 vs Col. Taking the home dog is a nice bet.

    This is one of those games that could easily go either way. Same thing with the total, you get two nasty pitchers and you expect it to go way under the total, and then the score is 10-9.

    Find a better game to bet on imo. good luck.

    There is a reason the Astros have such a terrible record. Good pitching only takes you so far without any offense. If Oswalt gives up 1 run I think they lose this one.

    Ya, as you can see, there is only 1 good player on Houston, and that is Oswalt. He had a rough 1st inning but that was it. Everyone else on the Astros is as shitty as shitty gets, and that is why you should Never bet the Astros...ever. There are far more better bets to play during the day/night of the mlb season. Only bet against Astros, never with them. They are worse than the Baltimore Orioles by a mile and are well deserving of having the worst players in the mlb. I like Roy Oswalt, and have seen this poor excuse of a team never show up for him when he pitches.

    Well said. Houston stinks and has zero offense, and they always play their worst ball when Oswalt pitches. It would be nice to see Oswalt go to a team that does not lay down in the top of the first inning.
